Does the “holy trinity” (Ethereum, Swarm and Whisper) support multimedia streaming?

Question

I'd like to stream media at specific time intervals - a sort of online radio if you will. I'm currently using Icecast but would much rather a peer to peer solution. I see there's a proof of concept for streaming on the Swarm roadmap but not much context around it.

Answer 1

Yes, I think you can because you can stream files over swarm.

While the routing protocol developed for swarm is likely to be abstracted out so that it can be used for any targeted data/message transfer from one participating ethereum node to another and this may be adaptable to streaming directly from you to your listeners
